Geocache Description:

Don't let the ratings fool you on this potentially easy bug hotel!

This cache has a very specific purpose; to temporarily house as many trackable Travel Bugs and Geocoins as possible. In fact, the ultimate goal of this cache is to hold and have officially reported the most trackable items in the world!

Of course, everyone's welcome and invited to record their find online and in the log provided. But please, the container is for the exclusive use of traveling bugs and coins only. If you hide or take a trackable item through this cache, please be sure to log your visit to help progress the purpose of the cache.

The location was very purposely selected. It is conveniently located between two exit/entrance ramps from Interstate 85, just south of the 85/985 interchange. If you're passing through, accessing this cache should be a very easy jaunt on your way - please enjoy this nice little side-trip!

As for the Terrain rating, don't let it fool you, as there is an easy way to access the cache and several other difficult ways to find it. This could be a very quick "gimme" 4-terrain if you carefully review your options before jumping into it. OK, so it's probably not one that you want to attempt in your "Sunday Bests," but it can be completed with little hassle and no special preparations.

PARKING - This could be tricky, but then again, not. The cache borders the Gwinnett County Public Schools Instructional Support Center. This is the central office to the state's largest employer, which runs one of the most successful public school districts in the country! While the parking lot is open most week days and there are usually plenty of parking spaces, and muggles, available, security personnel are also readily available and regularly make their presence known. On the weekends, it is monitored by security cameras, some of which can be seen while approaching the cache depending on the route you take. There are neighboring businesses in this business park, most of whom have limited parking. Please be courteous to these other businesses and respect their parking availability while they are open. Do not park on the road or in front of the entrance gates.

Finally, I will recognize 3 FTF's. Obviously, the first cacher to find the location will get recognition. Secondly, the first cacher to place a trackable item in the cache will get recognition. And finally, the first trackable bug or coin and it's owner will be congratulated for their early participation in this cache.

Oh, and I appologize - When I opened this cache it really didn't have any bugs in it (not even mine! They're still being delivered.) But I hope, with your help, it will soon become the Grand Central Station of traveling bugs and coins. Thanks for your participation!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

The First To Find honors go to joebids.

Following close behind and with First to Place a Trackable honors was DragonFlyDreams, who dropped the Samurai Wanna Be, owned by DragonFlyDreams.

Great job to all and I appreciate your participation in initiating this cache!

UPDATE: As noted above, the terrain could be rated a 2 - 2.5, depending on the direction from which you enter. But, if you choose to enter from the "wrong" way, you will have quite a challenge on your hands, thus the high rating/warning. However, there is an easier way to find the cache if you choose carefully.
